Catching Up

I just read my catcing up and guess I have some to do again …My wonderful dog is just as wonderful as before. She was great on our vacation, never had an accident in anyones house. Loved being w/ the kids but didn’t like Renee’s dog around the kids. I still love her dearly and found some suppliments to help w/ all the shedding! At first w/ the suppliments she wasn’t scratching but now she’s itching again but at least she isn’t shedding like before.aliyah, my mom’s niece, is still w/ us. She has lived w/ us since Feb. She’s doing good. I’m trying to teach her how to be more independent this summer. I’m also trying to get her ready for the second grade by doing math workbooks and reading everyday. She also doesn’t know how to entertain herself besides watching t.v. so there is no t.v. for at least 2 hours. She does her workbooks, reads and then has creative time doing something w/out t.v. or talking (color, play barbies … just play for heavens sake! Entertain yourself!!!)Like my last blog stated I started "dating" a guy from work but we never went on a date … so I guess we weren’t really dating; I made the relationship in my head and have told him what I want and didn’t get what it was I’m looking for so I’m moving on.The guy I dated last year that I had no chemisty w/ still calls but it’s not the situation I’m looking for either. I’m a monogamous partner and I want the same thing in return … He’s already stated that he isn’t going to be monogamous until he knows there is a relationship potential … well, we’ve known each other a year and hold back on nothing so obviously we aren’t going to get there if he doesn’t know by now. Plus, I’m not that into him. So, moving on. One more thing about him though — I like being in his life just to piss off the girl who introduced us. She and I worked together and I thought she was a mature adult and was happy to call her my friend. She introduced me & Ocala boy and this got pissed that we started dating. She called and left a crude & hurtful message on his phone and that was the end out my friendship w/ her. I like posting something simple on his facebook just in hopes that she see’s it and it pisses her off. ….. I know it’s wrong but f* it.Work is going well. For a week or two the bar schedual was f*ed up because the guy who went to jail decided he wanted more shifts and that it wasn’t fare that I had the weekend shifts … eventually it worked its self out and he was put in his place. He was hired as a part time bartender and he is lucky to have a job (after spending a month in jail). I have my hours back and I’m happy. Now, the economy has def hit the area. I’m not making near what i used to … I’m making about half of what I used to. I’m looking forward to season and hope they throw money my way!I wrote about my truck so she is doing great. On fathers day I had a huge scare. It felt like the transmission was going out and my mechanic was slammed so I had to take her to dodge. Thankfully it wasn’t the transmission and it was just carbon build up. W/ soaking the throttle body she was driving somewhat normal again. Dodge wanted $250 to change the spark plugs and my mechanic charged me $60! I just took it yesterday to have the transmission serviced. It’s a lot cheaper to have your car serviced than to fix something that has broke! W/ the tune up, a fuel additive to burn off the rest of the carbon and service to my transmission she is running great! Thank goodness, I want another 5 years out of her.I’m looking into putting a trailer on the back of my mom’s property. I’m really going to buckle down and pay everything off; spending another year here at my mom’s. I have a few minor things to pay off to get my credit back up so I’m not fooling around. Especailly since I’m not making what I used to.I had a great vacation spending time w/ my family … I miss my sisters and thier families already. Hopefully I’ll see them soon.I think that’s about it.
